Line Spike Frontenac was an inaugural two-day music festival held on a farm near Harrowsmith, Ontario over the weekend of June 28 and 29, 2025.

The festival organizer, Jeremy Campbell of Get2ThePoint Productions Inc. who worked at Woodstock '99, promoted a "Power of Positivity Musical Harvest" weekend after a personal cancer diagnosis and amid tense United States and Canada trade tensions, and threatened annexation as the 51st state in early 2025. Following the broadcast of Mike Myers giving an "elbow's up" sign on Saturday Night Live [1] and a subsequent grassroots movement of patriotism in Canada, Campbell formed an all-Canadian lineup consisting of former Juno Award winners and nominees, Canadian Music Hall of Famers, as well as local talent, MC'd by former MuchMusic veejay Bill Welychka [2][3][4]

An organizational dispute ended in the pulling of the festival's liquor licence by the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario, as the request of the council of South Frontenac two days before the event regarding perceived safety measures. Regardless, the festival proceeded with no incidents, and drew a crowd of over 4000 attendees.[5][6][7]

A sophomore event has been announced, to occur at the same location with twice the number of performers as the 2025 festival, on June 27-28, 2026. Chantal Kreviazuk and Raine Maida are set to headline the show.[8][9][10]
